Halloween Tree: Using Up Paper Scraps

The other day I was pawing around in my Halloween scraps which is for some reason a rather large bag full of smaller sized pieces. I had this idea to make a pie chart so I was cutting useless pieces at an angle and sticking them down.

Cut my circle and was immediately annoyed since it looked nothing like I wanted.

The left over scraps however looked super though.

Combined them with a recent photo I took of my favorite dead (or dying) tree and holy Halloweenie!

Love it! Those colours are popalicious...pummpkinicious????? And your POOR dying tree - well, the neighbours - & I think you are VERY clever creating this page from scraps ......soooo you ditched the pie graph????????

Wish I'd seen this page earlier. I had no drive to decorate at ALL this year. Just not in the Halloween mood; except we DID buy candy and had hot cider through the evening. However, your photo of your tree is the best. The scraps used together look wonderful and like everyone agrees...your layouts ARE the best. It's been so rejuvenating spending the morning here. :)
